     Congdon Dam is an exciting thing to check out, and if you need a place to stay Best Western Cristata Inn is a fine choice. At Picker Pond during the summertime months highs are in the 80's. Once the sun is down it drops down to the 50's. The wintertime brings highs down to the 30's, and winter nights come with lows in the 10's to Picker Pond. This lake is so wonderful. Stoddard Hill State Park is a good site to stretch your legs a bit, and you can spend the  
   day on the beach at Kiddie Beach. Taking a little tour to close by Bartlett Cove is a great idea; if you don't mind getting wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Natchaug River.
Picker Pond beyond doubt is in the middle of a delightful outdoors paradise. If the weather is wonderful here at Picker Pond, you can go for a hike along the Narragansett Trail. After a long day outdoors Microtel Inn and Suites Uncasville is a pleasant location to spend a
 
               night or two, and enjoy a round of golf at Groton Town Shennecossett Golf Course. This lake is so wonderful. Lakes are such calm spots, why not pop by Johnson Pond next to Picker Pond, and naturally Falls Brook is a charming stream that is worth a visit.
You're sure to come across some fine folks from Norwich-New London here; at Picker Pond you can spot Barnville Hill. What a spot this is for outdoors people. Odetah is a tremendous local campground; there are other places here than Picker Pond, for example Oxoboro Brook Reservoir. Picker Pond is a wet place that gets a good deal of rain; the month with most of the rain is November, and February is when it's the driest.
If you came for an overnight stay Laurel-lock Campgrounds is a magnificent place to camp, and while you're here you can take a hike along the Narragansett Trail.

Hidden Acres Family Campground
I took my two sons here for a week this summer and it was awesome!! We went in the middle of the summer and the weather was pretty good.? We had a couple good rainstorms at night but it always cleared up for the day.? My kids loved swimming in the pool and the river.? The river was so warm and if you went out to the big rocks the water was rough and felt like a hot tub!!? My sons (7 and 4&1/2)had a blast riding their scooters all over the campgrounds with the other kids.? They spent most of their time trying to catch frogs and tadpoles and playing at the playground.? We went to the ceramic shop and painted a keepsake for home.? We will definately be going back next year.? My kids want to go for two weeks this time but we will see....

... in the water, and as we were answering no, he was flashing the light up and down to see if we were wet. At that exact moment the park ranger's accusing us, the guilty ones (the kids) came walking around the corner screaming and laughing and wet from having a great time, I'm guessing. So my wife already angry says in a loud voice, I GUESS THAT'S US OFFICER. He got really angry, his face turned red. He ran up to the kids yelling at the top of his lungs and asked what campsite they were at and that they were being evicted from the park. Then he came back over to us and instead of apologizing for making a mistake, he evicted us too. And he told me if my wife did not shut up, he was going to arrest her for bridge of peace. Then he told us we had to pack up and leave, we were in shock, it was about 2:00 am in the morning and we had kids sleeping. He then jumped in his truck and went to the kids' site to make sure they were packing up. He drove back to our campsite, and I went up to him and told him we had kids sleeping and there would be no way to pack up in the middle of the night. If it...
